"Sade Jacomb."
They called my name and I pranced across the stage accepting my high school diploma. Before I walked off I turned to everyone and threw up TAB, a little crew me and three of my best friends came up with. I smiled at them, then my parents and walked off the stage and hugged my other friend Brylinn.
"You actually did it bitch!"
She yelled and I rolled my eyes walking over to take my seat.
The bedroom door down the hallway slammed snapping me out of my thoughts. It's crazy to think about how much has changed. Two years ago today was my graduation. That summer me and two of my best friends, Deanna and Jaelynn moved into a large loft in downtown Los Angeles. Just to party and live the single life.
But, two months after we moved in I met my boyfriend Rashad at the club and we have been together since. He was young but had a very promising future in the music industry as a producer. Then, just a few months after we got together he moved in.
That pissed my other best friend Alicia off to no end because we didn't let her move in, in the first place because of her wanting her long time boyfriend Markus to move in. Plus, you don't want to live with her. Trust me, I did it for over a year in school.
"Can you wash this, I have a meeting."
I nodded and stood up.
"Thanks baby."
He smiled wide and kissed my forehead.
"Welcome Shad, I lo-"
I was cut off by his work phone ringing. I sighed and took the basket of button up work shirts from him an he headed to the front door.
I walked into the little laundry room and started the washer so it could fill up with water. I tossed in a couple shirts before I picked up one looking at it. There was a berry colored lipstick stain on the colar. That's a color I dont wear. I brought it close to my nose and sniffed it, Chanel No. 5. A scent I don't wear. But once, every month, there is a charge for it on the credit card. I sighed throwing it in and adding detergant before slamming it shut.
I walked into the bathroom to wash my hands. I felt dirty from touching a shirt he had been with another woman in. I looked up at myself in the mirror.
I had blood trickling down from my nose. My lip was busted and my eye was already blackening.
Our relationship wasn't always this bad.
